The document discusses various design elements used in magazines, including images, picture boosts, columns, subheadings, drop shadows, and large numbers/text. Images are laid out consistently and look directly at the reader. Picture boosts relate to articles and include page numbers. Columns clearly set out page references to make the page neat. Subheadings organize articles and include page numbers and information to help readers find content. A drop shadow is used on one image to make it stand out. Large numbers and text on images provide important page references and names to help readers navigate easily.

2. Images - The images on this page
are all laid out in similar ways. All the
images of single people seems to be
looking directly at the
reader, making them feel more
involved with the magazine.
Picture boosts - These are used to
relate to the articles in the
magazine. The main one of Slash has
the page number where the article is
located on it.
Columns - These clearly set out the
different page references and makes
the page look neater. Each one has a
sub heading which is designed to
catch the attention of who ever is
reading it.

3. Sub headings - The articles are
organised with sub headings.
Each sub heading has the
appropriate page numbers and
some information about the
articles on the page, this makes
it easier for the reader to locate
the information they need
quickly.
Drop shadows - Drop shadows
are only used once on this page.
The image on the left third has a
shadow to make it stand out on
the page and add a three
dimensional affect to the
image, this makes it more
interesting to look at and
engages the reader’s eye.

4. Large number/text - The
annotation on the picture of
Slash is a large number and his
name. The number is the page
article which contains more
information of him. This is
handy for the reader as they can
skip straight to that page
without having to look for it.
They also have put Slash’s name
on the annotation, this is used
to show his importance in this
issue.
